Help with something really simple
Hi ChimeraX team,
I need to measure a simple angle between three atoms, two within one model and the third in another model to describe a domain motion.
In Chimera I could do this from the Structure Analysis tab but now it seems you can only measure distances. I tried the following command(s) and they both gave me an error. I also tried including commas between the angles. What am I doing wrong?
angle #1/A:602@C7m,:222@CB,#17/A:602@C7M measure angle #1/A:602@C7m #1/A:222@CB #17/A:602@C7M
Thank you!
Beth
Hi Beth, I changed the subject line to something more specific. It's OK to ask on this list, but you may be interested that there is a separate mailing list for ChimeraX questions: chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu
In ChimeraX the command is "angle" so something like this should work:
angle #1/A:601@c7m :222@cb #17/A:602@c7m
ChimeraX "angle" command http://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/commands/angle.html
ChimeraX measurements: http://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/measurements.html
